Anti-symmetrization on the lattice
Assume, I'm using a system of qubits to simulate a fermionic system.
If I'm using the second-quantized formalism (e.g. orbitals in quantum chemistry), the anti-symmetric nature of the fermionic wave ...

Optical quantum computers VS Superconducting quantum computers VS Electron-spin quantum computers
One of the main problems of superconducting quantum computers is that it is necessary to maintain a very low temperature (near absolute zero).
Such cooling is very expensive and complex.
Why, then, ...

Bell State 11 not working for parity curve
I am currently writing a script to automate the creation of parity curves for a 2 qubit bell state and then calculate fidelity and proving entanglement from that (inspired by this paper). It was going ...

What is the classical cost of simulating an arbitrary quantum state?
The past couple of years has seen various groups claim quantum advantage/utility only to have their experiments efficiently simulated with classical methods, notably using tensor networks.
My question ...

Trotter error for bosons in various encodings
Mapping second-quantized bosonic modes onto qubits can be done using various encodings. Each of those have their pro et contra. Fewer qubits — more gates, and vice versa. Encoding an $N$-level bosonic ...

What is the best way to use loop statements on a quantum computer?
I am interested in solving a time dependent linear partial differential equation of the form $Ax=b$ which, in classical computing, would amount to looping over solutions of $Ax=b$ where $b$ is updated ...

OpenFermion to Qiskit
Is there a direct way to go from an object generated in OpenFermion to objects usable in Qiskit? I can't find anything about any plugin.
It's not too hard to translate into pyQuil and then to Qiskit ...

What is the current research status in simulating many-particle systems from first principles?
There is a huge gap between basic physical laws and predicting many particle systems from first principles. It will be so amazing if we can predict most properties of many particle systems (from mass ...

Results from looped experiments on IBM Q different than individual experiments
I'm experiencing an issue while using Qiskit where the counts from a job return vastly different values when ran in a loop or as an array of circuits as opposed to single experiments when run by ...
